Let Go and Let God

Had no love from his mother
So he looked for it in his girl
Took care of her the best he could
He tried to give her the world
Destroyed her under pressure
Emotional from the pleasure
In the wrong places
Searching for love & affection
Living years with a mother
Who tend to rub off neglect ion
One day she was there
The next day she just up and left him
From the things that have happened
Through the pain in his life
His only mission in the future
Was to gain in his life
He hustled from time to time
To provide for his
To take care of his family
And then surprise the kids
A great father he was
A good parent because
When he was young
His father was never around
He missed special occasions
Like birthdays and Christmas
He used to ask his mother
Do you think daddy miss us
Born in a bad division
You had to have a decision
Only vision where he was
Was either dead or in prison
In order to stay on your feet
You had to strive to keep living
He had his mind set
To let go & let God
Because he knew if he didn’t
Then life would get hard
He started going to church
He started praying above
Everything that he had hated
Had now turned into love
He forgave his mother
Married and cherished another
Got in touch with his father
And then met his half brother
He was nothing but a profit
Who fell in love with Christ
He got real far quick
And lived a joyful life
Because he Let Go & Let God control is life
